haha. don't worry. Thanks Papercut for the info.
Good idea to combine two models into one.
It could work combining the JSC Shinano with the Halinski Yamato model.

Also, Today I orderd a book called "Essex Class Aircraft Carriers of the Second World War". It's one part of the Shipcraft series. Hope it will help me making a unicue model. So, Any more ideas, suggestions, models that I have missed?

Here is another picture: Brittish aircraft carriers.

I wonder which publisher published a model for the Taiyo class... would like to know

The blue dot is under the Unyo (Junyo) carrier (probbably misspelled by that homepage) and that one is published by Answer MKF. Maybe it could be modify into the Taiyo as well since it is in the same class

You could probably modify the Halinski Enterprise into the Hornet and Yorktown and also come up with a close representation of the ranger with a little scatch building. The Langley might be approximated using the freighters from jsc and placeing a flattop on one of them. I was thinking the Polish ships in the Gdansk set.

Thanks. I have already sent after a great book on Us Essex class carriers so I'm leaning towards building one of them (there was about 24 of them). should be fun.

Also if I have forgotten any Aircraft carrier, feel free to post it in this thread

I also have plans for a japanise carrier in the future.
